antenna analyzer

Rich They do not work well in high RF environments such as many repeater locations where there are other transmitters close by. What Does?? Even after 30 years in the business, I still see people hook up their $50K service monitors to a site antenna and blow the input. There is not much use of setting up HF at a repeater site, because ionospheric propagation is the predominant mode, also it puts you line of sight to a whole lot of man made noise. Although these things claim to work at VHF, I notice they have an SO239 so how seriously do they expect to work at those frequencies. My MFJ 269 came with a Type N connector. Mine saved me lots of time setting up my 9band Butternut vertical, but they eat batteries, so I cobbled up my cordless drill battery to work with it on the roof. |
